Jeanette Frances (Pohlman) Weatherholt, age 82 of Stanton, died Monday, April 26, 2021 at the Stanton Health Center. She was born November 13, 1938 in the family farmhouse in rural Stanton County, Nebraska, the daughter of Loren and Erna (Gadeken) Pohlman. She attended Bega School for two years and then attended St. John's Lutheran School in Stanton after her family moved to a new farm. She was baptized and confirmed at St. John's Lutheran Church in Stanton. She graduated from Stanton High School in 1956, and then attended The University of Nebraska for two years, obtaining a two-year teaching certificate.
On August 3, 1958 Jeanette was united in marriage to Jerry Weatherholt at St. John's Lutheran Church, in Stanton. Together they raised their children Scott, Rick, Jane, and Doug on the family farm. Jeanette taught elementary for two years at Pilger Public School. She loved giving piano lessons, acting as the part-time piano player at District 13 Country School, tending to her huge garden, mowing the lawn, raising her kids, and just being a model farm wife. In Jerry's words, "She was the eighth wonder of the world." In 1986, Jeanette went to work for the Stanton Register. After taking classes at Wayne State College to obtain her certificate to substitute teach, she worked for Winside Public Schools in their administration office and as a full-time substitute teacher for 10 years. After that, she substitute taught at Winside, Norfolk, and Stanton Public Schools.
Jeanette was an active member of Faith Lutheran Church and her strong faith was evident in her everyday life.
